Description
For intermediate recorder players, Book Two offers a comprehensive guide to improvisation and technique. Building on skills introduced in Book One, this title introduces the alto recorder and explores F fingerings. Thirteen lessons review pentatonic keys, then delve into diatonic modes, before introducing improvisation over chord changes. The book features a range of repertoire, including folk music and composed pieces written for recorders. Part Two begins by reviewing familiar scales, introduces the alto recorder's F fingerings, and explores hexatonic and diatonic scales. Students are encouraged to develop their skills through improvisation and building a repertoire of songs in both soprano and alto fingerings. Suitable for experienced teachers of upper grades, Book Two provides a valuable resource for those looking to expand their students' musical knowledge.
